ATTORNEY GENERAL KNOX
RULING ON THE CHINESE
Bears on Recently Deported San Fran
cisco M erch in ta Protected by
Their; Certificates of
Registration.
Washington, Aug. 14. Attorney Gen
crnl Knox, in an opinion rendered at
the request of the Secretary of tha
Treasury. llold tnat a Chinese may
engage In the manufacture of gooda
for sale and still be considered a mer
chant. In the sense In which that word
Ir used In the, treaty nnd laws relating
to the exclusion of Chinese, whoro the
mercantile iart of the luslness, cither
wholly or in part. Is the selling of
goods manufactured.
The rate under consideration Is that
of a member of a firm In San Francisco
engaged In the manufacture and sala
of cigars, and the question raised Is
whether this Chinese may he readmit
ted into the United States as n return
ing merchant. The Attorney Oeneral
holds that he Is entitled to admlsstonn,
In the course of his opinion the Attor
ney Oeneral says that he doca not
think a manufacturer, as such, Is en
titled to admission Into the United
StatcH. nor Is he disposed to think that
a bona fide merchant Is any less a mcr
chant because be Is also a manufac
turer.
The Attorney Oeneral lias also held
that all Chinese persons who have a
right to be In the United States, ns evi
denced by valid certificates of resi
dence or registration, are entitles to
pass from the United States to the Ha. I
01
HAWAII
wiillau Islands and to be protected
while there by their registration cer-jlbe
tlfUatc. as they would be In any or -
gnnlzrd territory of the continental
and Integral domain of the United
States.
The Attorney General, however, spe
cially limits his opinion to this one
question, and does not pass upon their
right to return to the United States.
He also Btrlctly limits Ills views of the
liberty of passage of Chinese 'persons
tf the different portions of flie United '
States to this particular case, which
sitbmlu the qaestlon as affecting this
particular Territory of Hawaii.

Mr. Hnughs snjs he t'oes not believe
tho fire can be extinguished until rnlti
comes to do It. As to the future of the
trnct, Haughs conferred with several
plantation managers none of whom feel
that their plantations, care to go ex
tensively Into the Imslncss of refor
esting tho burnt district. The ipcom
mendatlon will be made that nothing
be done for six or eight months. This
will glvo thp young timber shoots a
chance to come up, and then some Idea
may be formed of the necessary course
tc pursue. The burnt tract Is above
the rnno fine nnd the forests Were valu
able chiefly as a conserver of the wa
ter supply. To reforest will rcqulro
fencing 'and the expenditure of a lot
of money.
Mr. Haughs says all the fields and

of the Chinese merchants who camo

tuplr coungrt contended that the Joint
rc,0ulon of CongrcsB, prohibiting fur
tber Immigration of Chlnc-.se Into tho
Hawaiian Islands, was Intended to ap
ply only to Chinese Immigrants frotr
China, and that a Chinese merchant
domiciled In California nnd coming
here from San l'ranclhco was a person
lomlng from one part In the United
State's to another part In tha United
States, and was not a Chinese Immi
grant. The Collector had previously
overruled thlo contention and Judge
i.-..n without nnaslnir nnon the merits
not niiuce ti,c collector not to send
the merchants back to San Francisco
In the Mariposa but to permit them to
remain hero In charge of deputies until
an appeal from his decision could bo
heard and determined by tbo Secretary
of the Treasury. The appeal was In

ftrrlved last night that the Secretary of

decldid the very point raised by Mr.

charged. The collector will presfin.ibly
amend his rulings to conform to tha
decision, and hereafter Chlneno mcr
chants can land without objection.
